there are literally thousands of ancient myths where two gods (or angels) disguise themselves as men, and visit a town or city that doesn't accept them and is generally mean. but one resident takes them in, feeds them, protects them, etc. he is rewarded, and the rest of the city punished. it's an archetypal myth. very, very common.
